Ingredient ratings and evidence
Phenoxyethanol
Low risk
Phenoxyethanol is a preservative permitted in EU cosmetics up to 1.0%. The SCCS concluded it is safe for cosmetic use at that level, including when considering higher cosmetic exposure scenarios in infants and young children. Main practical concern is irritation/stinging on very sensitive or compromised skin rather than a pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific risk.
Sources: SCCS/1575/16: Phenoxyethanol opinion https://health.ec.europa.eu/publications/phenoxyethanol_en
Parfum
Low risk
Umbrella term for an undisclosed fragrance blend. It’s not usually a pregnancy-specific concern at normal cosmetic use levels, but the exact components and concentrations aren’t fully disclosed on the label, so we score it more conservatively. If you prefer maximum transparency (or you’re sensitive to fragrance compounds), choose fragrance-free/unscented products.
Sources: SCCS: Fragrance allergens in cosmetic products https://health.ec.europa.eu/latest-updates/sccs-new-opinion-fragrance-allergens-cosmetic-products-2012-07-31_en
Dimethicone
Low risk
Dimethicone is a silicone polymer used as a skin protectant and slip/conditioning agent. It is considered inert with minimal dermal absorption; the main practical issues are cosmetic (feel) and occasional irritation in very sensitive users. It is not a pregnancy-specific concern in topical cosmetic use.

Amodimethicone
Low risk
This ingredient is a silicone polymer included in CIR's dimethicone, methicone and substituted-methicone family assessment. CIR concluded the reviewed ingredients safe as used when formulated to be non-irritating to skin and eyes. This is family-level cosmetic evidence, not ingredient-specific human pregnancy evidence for every derivative. MamaSkin therefore retains Low Risk without claiming negligible absorption for this individual ingredient.

Polyquaternium-64
No known risks
A numbered cationic polymer used for hair conditioning, antistatic effects, film formation or formula texture. The Polyquaternium number identifies a distinct polymer, so evidence from one number is not treated as proof for every other number. For this ingredient, no pregnancy, reproductive or breastfeeding hazard signal was identified in the cosmetic-use and substance information reviewed. Its polymeric size makes meaningful absorption through intact skin unlikely; local irritation and control of residual monomers remain formulation-quality considerations.
Sources: European Commission CosIng ingredient inventory; CIR safety assessments and December 2025 Quick Reference Table for structurally and functionally related polyquaternium cosmetic polymers https://cir-safety.org/sites/default/files/QRT-Update-Dec2025.pdf; publicly available supplier safety data and ECHA substance information where available for the named polymer. No ingredient-specific pregnancy studies were identified.
Royal Jelly Extract
No known risks
An extract of royal jelly used for skin conditioning; bee-product allergy can cause reactions in susceptible users. Allergy is the principal practical concern. No pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific systemic hazard was identified for normal topical cosmetic exposure.
